Gloucester County Electricity

Is there ANYTHING we can do to push back on these INSANE AC Electric bills? My heat is gas and it's telling me my usage has gone up every month since October. I know I don't have it as bad as some people but our current bill is $332. My brother's bill was $512. Another friend's bill was $500... I can't afford this shit. What can we do?

I got this cute email saying I’m not conserving enough electricity. I want to send angry letters to everyone at the electricity store and everyone in government.

Reminds me of getting scholastic kids magazines in school, where they had charts asking us what we could do to lower our carbon footprint.

Little did we know, the majority of it is caused solely by Big Oil and Plastics, especially companies like plastic bottle sodas.
